Abuja (Sundiata Post) – Newly sworn in President of Gambia, Adama Barrow, has declared that his victory is for the Gambians.
Barrow was sworn in as Gambia’s new President on Thursday at a ceremony in the country’s embassy in neighbouring Senegal, as incumbent Yahya Jammeh refused to step down, after last month’s presidential election.
“This is a day no Gambian will ever forget in a lifetime,” Barrow said in a speech immediately, after taking the oath of office.
The ceremony was broadcast on Senegalese television.
But moments, after the swearing in ceremony, Barrow promised in his tweeter account, @adama_barrow, that Gambians national flag will fly high.
“This is a victory of the Gambian nation. Our national flag will fly high among those of the most democratic nations,” the third Gambian President tweeted.
